Make room for a proper working aisle

Nine by seven feet gives you useful depth for a bench, boxes and garden machinery while retaining a route from the entrance. Metal and wooden buildings offer contrasting choices, with apex roofs, shiplap-style walls and occasional floors or verandas. Keep the door area clear and allow the base to extend beneath the whole footprint. For more width and a different roof choice, compare 10 x 8 ft sheds.

Buying ready-made is about £1,361 cheaper than the materials to build it yourself. Factory-made buildings use lighter framing and thinner boards than a self-build, so building your own makes sense if you want it heavier-duty or a custom size.

The self-build figure uses our standard specification for this type of building, priced from a full materials list: framing, floor, cladding, roof, door and fixings. It excludes tools and your time.

The base you will need

A 9 x 7 ft shed needs a firm, level base at least 9 x 7 ft. Most guarantees depend on it. A concrete slab or paving lasts longest. A plastic grid filled with gravel is quicker, drains well and needs no concrete.
